OUR BOYCOTT CASE.
The Journal and Courier" yS. The
 Typographical Union.

Last year the JOmHal and Courier, a local ''rat" bapitalist sheet, whose principal proprietor, John B. Car rlngton, commenced negotiations with the Typographical Union with a view to making his office union office. This was immediately after the victory of the printers over the NofNlag NewS after a vigorous boy colt. Darlington did not hold to his agreement with the union repre- sentatlves, and the result was that q boycott was declared by the Typo graphical Union. the Trades Council and tine Knights of Labor. Caring ton succeeded in enlisting the "State" on his side, through a pros ecutlng attorney, and had four of the members of the union arrested on charge of criminal conspiracy. He gained his point in the City Court, the Superior Court (against all law and evidence), and the typos appealed to the Supreme Court. One of the accused, however, was acquitted in the Superior Court. Last week, Friday, the arguments were made before the Supreme Court. Prof. Johnson T. PIatt, Talcott II. Russell, and James T. Moran, being counsel for the Union, and John W. filling, counsel for the "State" e"- that is, Darlington. The ground for the complaint was that working people were asked to

THE P. p. p.

The following resolutions are 5e- ing circulated for signers by our Danbury friends:
 lIheredS, A private and irresponsible body of armed men known as the Pink erton Preventive Patrol have for several years assumed to exercise throughout the United States functions which essen tially belong to the polic of cities, the militia of States, and tB regular army,
 Ald, HhGeas, The practice of swear ing in as special officers for the preserva- tion of peace and property. men of un- known residence and notorious charac- ter, in tine pay and under the command of private individuals and corporations. IS glarlng imposture in violation of American liberty and fundamental law,
 ReSolred, That we demand of the Con- necticut Legislature the immediate en- actment of law forbidding the employ ment as special officers of men who are not citizens of the State and have not resided three years at least in the county where they are to be so employed; all such special officers to he in the exclu- sive service and pay of the proper au- thorities, under pain of fine and impris- onment for receiving any salary or re- ward from individuals or corporations.
 Good. But it is hard on the cor porations, and the legislature has always been soft on corporations. So We can't expect much in this line.

A COMMON THEFT.
The Fines System Not Legal in ~
 Rhode Island,

The case of Timothy J. Ryan vs. Riverside and Oswego Mills, came before Supreme Court on Tuesday on petition of the defendants for new trial. Ryan was employed at the Riverside mill as dresser tend CT, and for alleged imperfect work. he was fined and discharged. Ryan objected to the fine and refused to take his wages with the amount of the fine deducted from them. The matter was placed in the hands of George J. West by the Rhode Island Central Labor Union, and when the case came before Judge Blackwood, it was decided in favor of Ryan. The company appealed and took the case before jury, but were again defeated, and finally, on Tuesday last, as stated above, the company was heard before the Supreme Court on their petition for a new trial on the ground of the alleged disqualif- cation of q juror. The petition was dismissed with costs. -The Pe0ple.

A BOYCOTT.

A remarkable boycott is in progress in Galveston. A female compositor of that city, a member of the Printers Union, married non-union compositor, and then tried to get him to join the order. He refused. and the Union voted boy colt in which the wife participated, hay ing left her husband and begun proceed ings for a divorce. CtUtsndH
 The wife is no doubt sufficiently pun ished, and if she succeeds in getting q divorce, she will no doubt heed the les son: Don't marry Rat.

Victory for the Cicrks-Thr Paper.
 Makers-Scnb Cigars -TeXtilists.

'"tofl TOT the tltfkS-Iht Papcr' Makers-Scnb Cigars -TeXtilists. lloLNoNE, MASs., Feb. 3.-The adjourned Papor-Makcrs' meeting was held on Sunday afternoon; the hall in which they met proved to be too small to accommodate more than half of those who desired to attend.
 After lively and intelligent dis cusslon a committee of five was ap- pointed to obtain the cooperation of all the tour workers in the coun- try for the purpose of inducing the manufacturers to shut down the mills at 6 p. m. Saturday and to start at { D. m. on Monday. An other meeting in a larger hall will be held on February l5.
 The clerks have succeeded; they can now enjoy themselves three nights in the week.
 It is q curious fact, but it is a fact nevertheless, that scab cigars are being sold in the place where the tlgarmakers' Union holds its meet ings. Now l will not be a bit sur prised to hear that workingmen have stopped trading at that place.
 The woolen mills have an exten- siye and elaborate system of heecing their operatives by fines and peculiar .p@athods of measuring the webs and putting the proceeds into their own pockets. Facts and figures are be- ing secured and will be exhibited in the columns of the WoRKMEN's AD- yocATE in due time.
 The WoRKMEN's ADVOCATE has been of material benefit to the work men of this place. It has advanced the cause of the paper makers. It's influence was felt i'll the interests of the clerks. The textile workers and the cigarmakers will ere long find the advantage of having the priyi- lege of a newspaper that will take special notice of all that concerns their welfare and keep every gricv- ance they have before the pulic un- til 1t is abated.
 But to make it thoroughly efrcc- tive the cooperation of those who are to derive the benefit is necessary; to this end Il large subscription list is indispensable. There is now quite a respectable list of subscribers from this place, and some additions are being made to it every week, and I trust that workingmen will see how much more desirable 1t is to have paper of their own than to depend upon the captalistic penny trump cts that have nothing better than gIbes and jeers for workingmcn, and are always prompt to publish every scurrilous and discreditablc items that in any way reflects on the work man or his cause.
 Names and subscriptions sent to the undersigned will be promptly attended to. ADAM RAIAGE,

 P. $. The dude on the hill who is, for the time being, running the capltalistic penny trumpet wants to know who will pay the assessments and expenses of the Knights of La LOT strikers when all have struck and none are earning wages?

A BRUTAL AFFAIR.

A disgraceful row occurred last Thurs
day eve. about O'Clock in l. Rolfson's
saloon, which might have ended fatally
for one of the parties. Two strangers
had been playing pool, and when they
went to pay for their game one of them
tried to pawn his revolver, and failing
in that tried to obtain some drinks on
credit. He failed in this also, when one
of them tried to shoot Robson, so he
says, but the other prevented him.
They then began to throw beer glasses
at Robson and to pound him with them.
He was terribly cut about the face and
head and bied freely. A physician was
summoned and dressed the wounds.
He was able to be around to-day. The
police were summoned, but by the time
they had arrived on the spot the fellows
who made the assault had departed and
could not be found, nor have they been
found since. Their names are not
known, and it is supposed that they are
strangers. The affair was most brutal,
and the assailers should haye justice
melted out to them if found. They were
not drunk at the time, it is stated. Rolf
son thinks he can identify the parties if
he should see them again. The police
are on the lookout for them. A man
named Gilmore, living near st. Clair,
was in the saloon just before the affair
happened, but left the room when the
trouble began. Robson considers that
this man was the instigator of the assault.

The Burr r obbins' Circus.

Speaking of the Burr Robbins Show
which will be here Aug. "a the Muske-
gon Daily Chronicle says .
"The above grand consolidation arriv-
ed here early Sunday morning, the work
of unloading trains was accomplished in
quiet, business-like way, no more be-
ing done Yesterday than was necessary.
Mr.. Robins believes in giving his nu-
merous army of men all the rest he can
on the Sabbath. The employees were
quiet and orderly during Sunday many
attending the various churches.
This morning at precisely ten o'clock
the grand street parade left the show
grounds and by the time it reached the
main portion of the city the streets were
crowded to such an extent it became
impossible to walk on the sidewalks.
The parade was long one, representing
a fortune itself. On opening the doors
at one o'clock the crowd was so dense
that it took time for the late corners to
gain Abundance. Once inside beauti-
full sight was presented. The various
rare and costly animals on exhibition
were worth miles of travel to behold.
Some of the animals have never been
seen in other menageries by the Oldest
show-going people.
After viewing the menagerie the crowd
started for the main tent where the
grand circus performance is given Mr..
Robbins made ample provision to seat
the vast crowd comfortably. To de-
scribe it in full would require more space
than we cae spare. Suffice it to say that
the performance has never been sur
passed in Muskegon. Especial mention
must be made of the wonderful and ar
tlstic bareback riding by the various
artists. Also the grand areil perform
ances, some of the trapeze acts being
simply marvellous. The Human Serpent
Victor Jerome, in feats of contortion, is
a marvel defylng all the laws of gravita-
ton. A word for the clowns: They
are funny and use no ancient chestnuts,
their jokes being new. The performing
ing elephant were the finest seen, also
the mules and ponies. In fact the en-.
tire show is the finest which has visited
Muskegon, and should Mr.. Robbins
come again he can be sure of hearty
welcome. The last performance takes
place this evening, and all who enjoy
such sights should attend it.

THE CATHOLIC CONVENTION
COMING.

The time set for the annual meeting of
the German Catholic Insurance Com
pany of the State of Minnesota, to be
held in Mankato, is Oct. Is. This is a
large organization, comprising over 200
members and no less than 700 members
are expected to be in attendance. The
meetings will be held in the Catholic
College and will be of more than ordi-
nary interest. A committee appointed
to make preliminary arrangements for
this meeting met yesterday and will
hold another meeting in week or so
when all the necessary committees will
be appointed. Reduced rates have been
secured over the railroads and the mem
bers will be entertained free of expense
while here. Meetings of this society
have been held at various cities of the
state for several wears past and have in
variably been very largely attended and
have attracted much attention. The So
ciety itself is life insurance organlza-
ton. At the death of a member the de-
pendent relatives or heirs receive $1,000.
This will be fine chance to show up
the resources and advantages of our city
to very desirable class of people, and
the opportunity should not be per-
mitted to pass unlmproved. 1t will
not require much money outlay
to show these people around the city
and any such courtecies will be fully APP
preciated by the visitors. Many Of
those who will be here are men OIL
abundant means. The Board of Trade
would do we'll to consider this matter
and see what can be done.
The Catholic church will have charge
of the lodging and entertainment of the
members. Several bands, including the
famous Great Western, of st. Paul, will
be here and plenty of music furnished
There will also be other attractions of
fared
